Structural directives can now specify a type guard that describes
what types can be inferred for an input expression inside the
directive's template.
NgIf was modified to declare an input guard on ngIf.
After this change, `fullTemplateTypeCheck` will infer that
usage of `ngIf` expression inside it's template is truthy.
For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

Throwing an exception in a lifecycle event will delay but not
prevent an Init method, such as `ngOnInit`, `ngAfterContentInit`,
or `ngAfterViewInit`, from being called. Also, calling `detectChanges()`
in a way that causes duplicate change detection (such as a
child component causing a parent to call `detectChanges()` on its
own `ChangeDetectorRef`, will no longer prevent change `ngOnInit`,
`ngAfterContentInit` and `ngAfterViewInit` from being called.
With this change lifecycle methods are still not guarenteed to be
called but the Init methods will be called if at least one change
detection pass on its view is completed.

This allows to overwrite templates for JIT and AOT components alike.
In contrast to `TestBed.overrideTemplate`, the template is compiled
in the context of the testing module, allowing to use other testing
directives.
Closes#19815
Before, as soon as a user called `TestBed.overrideProvider` for a provider
of a `NgModule` that was imported via `TestBed.configureTestingModule`,
that `NgModule` became lazy.
This commit changes this behavior to keep the `NgModule` eager,
with or without a call to `TestBed.overrideProvider`.

Each node now has two index: nodeIndex and checkIndex.
nodeIndex is the index in both the view definition and the view data.
checkIndex is the index in in the update function (update directives and update
renderer).
While nodeIndex and checkIndex have the same value for now, having both of them
will allow changing the structure of view definition after compilation (ie for
runtime translations).
This is needed as:
- closure declares globals itself for minified names, which sometimes clobber our `ng` global
- we can't declare a closure extern as the namespace `ng` is already used within Google for typings for angularJS (via `goog.provide('ng....')`).
The new expression lowering lowers everything after `useValue` / `useFactory`
into a separate exported variable. If the value was a `forwardRef`, this
was passed to the runtime and resulted in errors.
This change unwraps `forwardRef`s during runtime again.
Note: we can’t unwrap the `forwardRef` into an exported variable
during compile time, as this would defeat the purpose of the
`forwardRef` in referring to something that can’t be referred to
at this position.
- optimize the way node flags are propagated in `viewDef()`,
- fix `elementDef()` signature to make `namespaceAndName` nullable,
- move render parent computation with the parent computation

The size of the minified umd bundles have been slightly decreased:

Add unregisterApplication() and unregisterAllApplications() to testability registry for cleaning up testability and unit test.
BREAKING CHANGE: `NgFor` has been removed as it was deprecated since v4. Use `NgForOf` instead. This does not impact the use of`*ngFor` in your templates.
